Q. can you recommend the best type of dentures out there? Either removable or flexible whatever.. I’m considering them because i have gum disease and have been told my teeth are going to fall out or be extracted thank you.
A. The best denture is one supported by dental implants. A conventional denture made of rigid material with high quality denture teeth custom fitted for esthetics and a good bite is what I would recommend. Stay away from the cheep denture clinics. These are usually cheaper materials and the doctors will take little time to custom fit for esthetics and function. Dr. Lemongello

Q. I’m considering dental implants to replace my annoying dentures, can you get a full mouth set of implants? If so how much would they be? Also, would you advise doing this?
A. With todays implant technology it is possible to replace all your teeth with implants. There are many other implant combination and restorative possibilities available as well depending on your financial situation. The cost can vary greatly based on your location and the expertise of the dentist. I would recommend you seek a consultation with a qualified implant specialist. Dr. Lemongello

Q. How much does a complete denture cost for the whole upper teeth? The cost of the removal of five other teeth may need to be included as well.
A. To answer this, requires a visit to the dentist. Many things can enter into the cost of treatment in the design of a denture.

Q. My teeth are in a bad condition. Gradually each one of my front teeth is falling out and I am hating it. Whatever dentist i see tells me that i should get implants but i don’t have the money to spare! what other otions if any are there?
A. You may need to consider a bridge depending on the health of the remaining teeth. If this isn’t possible you may need to consider some form of removable denture to replace the teeth. Removable dentures are an economical way to replace teeth. Dr. Lemongello

Q. Hello Drs, can you tell me if dental implants can help to support dentures. I have heard that they can but I am not clued up on this sort of thing. I have had a denture for a year now but it doesn’t fell secure. I was hoping implants would be able to assist with this problem.
A.
Yes, implants can be used to help support and provide security of a denture. An implant supported denture is relatively simple and may be one of the most satisfying procedures for denture wearers we can provide.

Q. All my teeth are going to be extracted in order to get a denture, but how long will it take to get the denture when moulds are taken? Will I just have to walk around with no teeth for this time or can I be offerred a short term replacement?
A. I recommend you discuss with your dentist an immediate denture. Molds are taken and the denture is made before your teeth are extracted, this way you do not go without teeth. After healing takes place the immediate denture can be modified to fit better or a new denture can be made.

Q. Are mini implants just another option when it comes to dental implants or do they do a different job entirely and are used for a different purpose when it coems to replacing mssing teeth?
A. No, in my opinion there are very few indications for mini implants. They were originally designed as temporary implants. The only place I would recommend them is to hold in a full lower denture only when finances are a major concern. Conventional implants are significantly better in all situations.

Q. Are they any circumstances where a denture can not be fitted? I ask becuase I have had to have several teeth removed and when I next go to the dentist I am sure the rest of them are going to be needed to be removed. This is all becuase I have dental phobia.
A. Usually there is not a problem fitting dentures. Stay positive and relax. Dental treatment can create anxiety but most of the time everything goes smoothly and there is no need to be so phobic in the first place. Talk to your dentist and let them know how you feel.

Q. My dentist has said that I will be able to get immiediate dentures after I get my wholte top teeth removed. This was because of a severe case of gum disease which I am now getting through. Could you please tell me what these are and how they are any different from normal dentures?
A. An immediate denture is placed at the same time the teeth are extracted. This allows the patient not to have to go without teeth.
